NBC has responded to a Planned Parenthood petition over its handling of an ad for the film “Obvious Child” that mentioned the word abortion. More than 13,000 people signed the petition protesting reports NBC rejected the ad. In a statement, NBC said it has “no policy against accepting ads that include the word 'abortion,'” but acknowledged “feedback was mistakenly given to remove the word 'abortion'” from a video ad submitted for NBC’s digital platforms. NBC said it would accept the digital ad “as it was originally submitted.” As of today, “Obvious Child” is airing in nearly 200 theaters across the United States.
